ghettoVCB VS ohmyzsh

What are you trying to backup? VMs or the host itself? If host, hypervisors are usually meant to be disposable since you can import config from VMFS and VMX. You can backup configuration files within ESXi just to not redo complicated networking config. If you want to backup VMs, use any 3rd party software (yes, there are no built-in backups). If you are running free ESXi, you are pretty much forced to use agent-based backup or use scripts from Github - https://github.com/lamw/ghettoVCB.

All of the hypervisors you've mentioned (Proxmox, ESXi, XCP-NG) are capable of PCI passthrough, so it really boils down to which one you're comfortable with. ESXi is feature-limited regarding backups (unless you acquire a paid vSphere license or choose to use ghettoVCB).

VMware ESXi Free (or vSphere Hypervisor) is a great option, however, it has limitations. The main limitation is that storage api is limited, and you can't use Veeam or alternatives to backup VMs. You can use ghettoVCB with free ESXi. https://github.com/lamw/ghettoVCB

Oh, got it. You can try using GhettoVCB with free ESXi. https://github.com/lamw/ghettoVCB

In case you are planning to use ESXi free, you can use ghettoVCB to backup your VMs. https://github.com/lamw/ghettoVCB

Back up the existing server's configuration and restore on to a new disk. https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2042141 https://github.com/lamw/ghettoVCB

Veeam has no such option. For ESXi configuration backup you can use ESXi Configuration Backup Tool or GhettoVCB. https://www.vladan.fr/free-esxi-configuration-backup-tool/ https://github.com/lamw/ghettoVCB

Backups - either use Veeam at the OS level or leverage ghettoVCB to do backups from the ESX host itself using snapshots (I use the latter, personally) and replicate them to your backup NAS.

If you are not using oh-my-zsh, you are missing out on some amazing plugins. One feature most people wish the terminal had is autocompletion. With the zsh-autosuggestions plugin, your terminal will autocomplete most commands and remember previous ones.

That’s the minimum terminal setup. You can modify the look and add plugins such as autocompletion to your terminal by installing ohmyzsh and using themes such as powerlevel10k. I am already using them.

Somewhat related is "Oh My ZSH!" which is basically zsh on steroids, it's always one of the first things I install on a new computer. It gives things like new colors, themes, plugins, and more. Highly recommend you check it out.

I had just gone through a fun tutorial for setting up oh-my-zsh with a nice color scheme from iterm2colorschemes.com and a decent prompt and I was wondering: can I make my oblique strategy look nice? how can you actually use the colors from your scheme in the output in your cli?

After this you going to visit Oh-My-Zsh which is where the magic will happen.

after automating my dotfiles, I want to automate my installations, after that I want to make my terminal easier to use so I add OMZ with many plugins, after that, I try to automate the backup of my setting on my Gnome but failed, then try using git-lfs for my big files but it turned out to be idiotic moves, bla bla bla many try and fail.
